Well, you can select() on at least 128 Ports. With Linux Port Redirection
feature one can do something like:
ipfwadm -I -i acc -P tcp -S0/0 -D 1.2.3.4 1000:2000 -r 3000
This will redirect all connections to port 1000 .. 2000 to Port 3000 (on
address 1.2.3.4). A Programm running on Port 3000 can get the destination
port by using getsockname(). I think this is brokwn in 2.0.30.
The great advantage of this is, that you only have to wait on one socket.
Greetings
